God's card

Yesterday was one of those days.  Ugh !!!  Everything seemed to be plotting against me, including my own emotions, and my patience (or lack there of).   Just an example; the day before I was trying to send a fax, and I of course plugged the fax into the wrong jack (not knowing that when I removed the cord  that was already there I had caused the phone system in my house to cease working).  So I tried again yesterday, and everything was still not working.  Nor could I get a human being on the phone to the dr's office I was trying to fax something to, but that is another topic all together.  So, I finally got the idea I should try the jack in the bedroom, which was the right thing to do, but in the process I knocked over my little jewelry holder, which of course had all these little beads in it, and of course Vinny is trying to sleep (this jack is in the bedroom remember) through all this, and well, this is just a taste of how the whole day was going.  Unanswered phone calls, nothing going right at work,  and cleaning the house had it's own trials and tribulations of course.  Well, I guess really all of this was just the normal everyday issues and frustrations we all face, but as I said, my patience was non-existent for whatever reason.

Well just when I was lamenting some annoying trifle at work, I decided to give a quick check of my email.  In it was an e-card from a dear sister at church, and just check out what it said !!

Ten things God wants you to know.

I am for You.
I love you.
I believe in you.
I will not fail you.
I will be with you.
I will provide for you.
I will bless you.
I will give you rest.
I will strengthen you.
I will answer you.  

WOW!!  That is all I can say.  A card from God!!!  How completely awesome is that.  Not one of the problems or irritations I encountered that day was earth shaking or major in anyway, yet He still too the time to remind me He was on my side.  I am still so blown away, still so grateful.  And thank you, dear sister for your thoughtfulness.

And if you are reading this, this card is for you too.  Accept it from your loving, heavenly Father.
